Wet

The song 'Wet' by Dazey and the Scouts delves into the emotional turmoil of loneliness and the yearning for intimacy. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the protagonist alone in their bedroom, reflecting on a past relationship. The juxtaposition of physical and emotional wetness serves as a metaphor for the protagonist's desire and the tears shed over the lost connection. The phrase 'I'm my own right-hand girl' suggests self-sufficiency and independence, yet there's an underlying tone of missing the companionship and physical intimacy of the person they once were with.

The recurring chorus emphasizes the contrast between the protagonist's tearful state and their unfulfilled sexual desires. This disparity highlights the deeper emotional connection they miss, which cannot be replaced by physical pleasure alone. The mention of a 'smoking gun' could symbolize the evidence or reason behind the relationship's end, which still haunts the protagonist. The song's raw and candid exploration of these feelings resonates with the struggle of moving on while still being attached to the memories of a past lover.

The latter part of the song introduces a fantasy of being embraced by the earth, which can be interpreted as a metaphor for wanting to be consumed by something greater than oneself, possibly to escape the pain of solitude. The line 'My blood runs cold, my thoughts are plasmic' further illustrates the internal conflict between holding on and the potential release of letting go. The song ends on a note of unresolved tension, with the protagonist still caught in the cycle of longing and emotional saturation, symbolized by the refrain 'It keeps me wet, you know you keep me wet, till I run dry.'
